After leaving the Imperial Army, Gul-Rah hooked up with the bounty hunter group Qulok's Fist. Around 7 ABY, a hunt on a backwater world turned into a slaughter. Gul-Rah wasn't proud of his role in the massacre, and left the group, eventually retiring to the planet Kal'Shebbol to life a quiet life. He never revealed his reasons for leaving the gang.

Following the New Republic liberation of Kal'Shebbol, a call went out for good starship crew and ground soldiers to crew the CR90 corvetteFarStar. Gul-Rah dragged himself out of his usual cantina booth and joined up in an effort to repent for his past crimes.
